  • The 2008 IUCN Red Listings of the World's Small Carnivores
    The 2008 IUCN red listings of the world’s small carnivores Jan SCHIPPER¹*, Michael HOFFMANN¹, J. W. DUCKWORTH² and James CONROY³ Abstract The global conservation status of all the world’s mammals was assessed for the 2008 IUCN Red List. Of the 165 species of small carni- vores recognised during the process, two are Extinct (EX), one is Critically Endangered (CR), ten are Endangered (EN), 22 Vulnerable (VU), ten Near Threatened (NT), 15 Data Deficient (DD) and 105 Least Concern. Thus, 22% of the species for which a category was assigned other than DD were assessed as threatened (i.e. CR, EN or VU), as against 25% for mammals as a whole. Among otters, seven (58%) of the 12 species for which a category was assigned were identified as threatened. This reflects their attachment to rivers and other waterbodies, and heavy trade-driven hunting. The IUCN Red List species accounts are living documents to be updated annually, and further information to refine listings is welcome.

BOURASSA, USDA/APHIS/WS, National Wildlife Research Center, Fort Collins, CO, USA Abstract: While investigating the American badger (Taxidea taxus) in eastern Colorado’s wheatlands, we studied 3 badgers which were affected by a 2.1 km2 man-made fire and compared them to 2 adjacent badgers unaffected by the fire. All badgers were equipped with radio-telemetry collars and generally located day and night for approximately 1 month pre-fire and 3 weeks post-fire. Three point triangulation locations were converted into a global information system database.

  • Occurrence and Conservation Status of Small Carnivores in Two Protected Areas in Arunachal Pradesh, North-East India
    Occurrence and conservation status of small carnivores in two protected areas in Arunachal Pradesh, north-east India Aparajita DATTA, Rohit NANIWADEKAR and M. O. ANAND Abstract The rainforests of north-east India harbour a diverse assemblage of mustelids, viverrids and herpestids, many of which are hunted. Yet, very little information exists on their ecology, distribution, abundance, and conservation status. A camera-trapping survey was carried out in two protected areas (Namdapha National Park and Pakke Wildlife Sanctuary) in Arunachal Pradesh between 2005 and 2007 as part of a wildlife monitoring programme. The two areas are believed to hold 13–15 species of forest-dwelling small carnivores, apart from three otter species. We recorded seven species in 2,240 trap-nights in Namdapha, and four species in 231 trap-nights in Pakke. Direct sightings and indirect evidence confirmed the occurrence of additional small carnivore species apart from those recorded during the camera-trap surveys in both areas. Photo-capture rates of four species recorded were high in Namdapha relative to those in three sites in South-east Asia. Capture rates of the Large Indian Civet Viverra zibetha were relatively high in Namdapha compared with other species, and this species, along with the Yellow-throated Marten Martes flavigula, appears to be common. Species such as the Binturong Arctictis binturong, Spotted Linsang Prionodon pardicolor and Stripe-backed Weasel Mustela strigidorsa were not recorded by camera- traps, although other evidences of their presence were recorded. Incidental or retaliatory hunting was recorded for most species; otters are highly threatened in Namdapha due to considerable hunting for skins which have high market value.

  • China October
    China October - December 2019 40 days Sophie and Manuel Baumgartner China was the last part of our 5-month mammal watching journey. We already had a great time in Borneo and South America and even though we were not sure how it would be here - we already appreciated a lot what nature had ready for us. What we experienced in China blew us away! When we started to organise our trip to China our idea was to travel independently once again and put a focus on also discovering new places (contributing in style of citizen science) but we quickly realized that this was going to be complicated here. It started with the fact that we were not allowed to drive, neither with our driving license, nor with the international one. Once we were there, we were really grateful to have a Chinese speaking travel companion, we barely met anyone speaking English and since one cannot use Google (no Facebook, Wikipedia and WhatsApp only partially as well by the way) here… well. No Google Translate and only Bing which leads to translations such as this on the picture besides. Even if you are travel experienced, everything seems to be different here in China and discovering new places was a great challenge to us. There are no Apps or anything like that where nature reserve and accommodations are visible, most interesting roads (small roads) are not visible on Google Maps (maps.me was sometimes more accurate). So, we always basically had to drive [email protected] anywhere and discover there. Accommodations were sometimes hard to find and there is also the possibility that you do find an accommodation but that they don’t take “westerners” because they don’t know how to report to the police or one time the police kindly told us to leave the whole county as we would have needed a special permit to visit.

  • Estimating the Minimum Trapping Effort on Camera Traps
    How long is enough to detect terrestrial animals? Estimating the minimum trapping eVort on camera traps Xingfeng Si1, Roland Kays2 and Ping Ding1 1 The Key Laboratory of Conservation Biology for Endangered Wildlife of the Ministry of Education, College of Life Sciences, Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, China 2 North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences & NC State University, Raleigh, NC, USA ABSTRACT Camera traps is an important wildlife inventory tool for estimating species diversity at a site. Knowing what minimum trapping eVort is needed to detect target species is also important to designing eYcient studies, considering both the number of camera locations, and survey length. Here, we take advantage of a two-year camera trapping dataset from a small (24-ha) study plot in Gutianshan National Nature Reserve, eastern China to estimate the minimum trapping eVort actually needed to sample the wildlife community. We also evaluated the relative value of adding new camera sites or running cameras for a longer period at one site. The full dataset includes 1727 independent photographs captured during 13,824 camera days, documenting 10 resident terrestrial species of birds and mammals. Our rarefaction analysis shows that a minimum of 931 camera days would be needed to detect the resident species suYciently in the plot, and c. 8700 camera days to detect all 10 resident species. In terms of detecting a diversity of species, the optimal sampling period for one camera site was c. 40, or long enough to record about 20 independent photographs. Our analysis of evaluating the increasing number of additional camera sites shows that rotating cameras to new sites would be more eYcient for measuring species richness than leaving cameras at fewer sites for a longer period.

  • Camera-Trap Records of Small Carnivores from Eastern Cambodia, 1999–2013
    Camera-trap records of small carnivores from eastern Cambodia, 1999–2013 T. N. E. GRAY1, PIN C.2, PHAN C.2, R. CROUTHERS2, J. F. KAMLER3 and PRUM S.2,4 Abstract Camera-trapping targeted at large mammals was conducted across nine lowland areas (predominantly under 300 m asl) in eastern Cambodia between 1999 and 2013. At least 10 small carnivore species were recorded including, based on The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, two categorised as Vulnerable (Large-spotted Civet Viverra megaspila and Binturong Arctictis bintu- rong) and two as Near Threatened (Large Indian Civet V. zibetha and Hog Badger Arctonyx collaris). Over 75% of small carnivore camera-trap encounters were of Large Indian Civet or Common Palm Civet Paradoxurus hermaphroditus, indicating that these species remain widespread and common in eastern Cambodia’s lowland forests. Possible declines of Hog Badger, Large-spotted Civet and Small Indian Civet Viverricula indica are noted but further research is merited.
